Arkansas stock law watered down by legislature
The state stock law enacted by direct vote last November was weakened by the legislature and signed by Governor McMath. The bill extends the prohibition of cattle on public roads to federal and state highways, leaving most roads unprotected. The piece discusses who has the final say between people and legislature, likening to Workmen’s Compensation history, and notes anger from the Business & Professional Women’s clubs over the reversal. The writer doubts the law but is certain about the politics.
